Funny

Right now, I'm watching the Tyra Bank's Show and just now, it talked about parenting and how parents need to set some kind of rules to their children and not just let them go free.  A psychologist say that kids feel loved and cared for when their parents set rules.  I know some of my friends have said that.  They liked how their parents were open and free, yet at the same time they wished their parents would of been more disciplining.  

I thought it was funny how we as humans want some type of rules.  The way God set rules, guidelines for us is a way of showing us His love and care.  He doesn't want us to hurt ourselves, but our minds become twisted by the enemy where we take that care that God has for us and make us think that God is restricting us and policing us.  That is where we become rebellious just like the enemy, himself.  He whispers these lies that he is consumed of everyday.

Once I place my eyes on others is when I began seeing how dearly loved and much I have.  Just now, I  began thinking how the enemy wants us to focus on ourselves - that's what he did.  He focused on himself and began letting those selfish thoughts consumed him, which made him end up rebelling against God and being thrown out of the kingdom of Heaven.  However, as for God, He actually thinks about others more than Himself!  I mean He thinks about Himself and yes, He is worthy of praise, but for the most part from my own understanding, He seems to think about others and wanting to serve and love.  That's why it is so important for me daily to think about God because once I think about myself and what I don't have, I slowly fall into the enemy's lies.

Also, yesterday while my dad and I were driving home, he was giving me advice about driving and what to do and what not to do.  After 15 minutes, I began become annoyed.  I looked out the window and closed my eyes trying to grip my temper.  I started praying for God to give me patience because I can tell I was becoming annoyed.  I started thinking how I dislike when my parents lecture me and always giving me advice that I already know.  I feel like they don't trust me.  Then I started thinking how when I talk to my parents and share to them what's going on with my life, they ALWAYS have to come back at me with advice.  I know they are doing it out of love, yet at the same time, it becomes draining.  When I was thinking about that, I started thinking how as humans, we actually like to give advice and give our input.  We like to share and tell others what we know.  I know that for me, I get this good feeling when I share others my thoughts and opinions to help them.  And I notice that my parents and even the most mean person loves to share as well.  And it dawn onto me is that we are created to "share" and "help" others in some sense.  Even the most mean, cold-hearted person loves to share what they know, which you will see in movies.  Usually the evil villian have a side kick that he talks and share his thoughts with.  All of this shows me that we're created to share something.  This is where I made a connection where we're created to spread the good news and to give hope in others lives.  

I just think it's funny how God created us and all the connections.  That was just something I felt God showed me.
